FOXBOROUGH — The Un-Common Theatre Company has announced dates for the annual series of Improvisation Workshops, slated for 4-5 p.m. Oct. 22, Nov. 5 and 26, Dec. 3 and 17, Jan. 7 and 21 and Feb. 11 at St. Mark’s Church, 116 South St.

This eight-session workshop series will be taught by Improv Soup Alumna Colleen Murphy, aided by experienced Improv Soup members, who will allow budding improvisers to experience the excitement of being part of an improv troupe. Participants will learn basic improv skills, learn to work as a team and will perform a show for friends and family at the last session. Each year’s workshop content is different and return attendees can participate.

Eligible students must be in grades 7-10 and the cost for the workshop will be $150.

A maximum of 15 students will be able to take part in the eight-session workshop series and will be chosen on a first come basis. To sign up, email Chris Lowey at chrislowey@verizon.net or call 508-698-3939 leaving a name, grade, phone number and email address. Participants will receive an email with a registration form to fill out and will be expected to pay the $150 workshop fee before the first class.

Improv Soup Junior members are not guaranteed a spot in the Improv Soup Troupe, but will be eligible to audition in May 2018 and will have the advantage of Improv experience going into future auditions.
